Hi all,
I am trying to setup a shared storage (Datastore) for my Esxi hosts via iSCSI as it supports VAAI but having issues.
I have a storage array which is connected to a Proliant server using HBA. FreeNAS is installed on Proliant server and ZFS is configured on storage array. I created an iSCSI LUN to share a zvol to my ESXi hosts. I can connect first ESXi host fine to the LUN and format it to VMFS datastore. When I try to connect to the second Esxi host it can see the disk but cannot access the datastore on it or create one.
Upon reading i found that earlier FreeNAS supported Multiple connections per target for iSCSI and multiple sessions per target too.
Is there any way to share an zvol over iSCSI to multiple ESXi hosts?
Thanks
